Product Sheet The world’s most respected tool for pipe stress analysis Capabilities: • Static analysis • Dynamic analysis • Intuitive analysis model creation • Design tools and wizards • Load and view plant model • Comprehensive error checking Reduced modeling time Save time modeling, so you can focus on your stress analysis. Experience superior usability with List Input grids and functionality that lets you work straight from the 3D model. Right-click menus and a functional toolbar layout with customization available lets you work quickly. Integration with CAD design packages lets you quickly import models, reducing risk for errors and costly iteration time between CAD and Stress Analysis divisions. Advanced graphics • Wind and wave analysis Experience 3D model graphics with fast response times to model actions and intelligent refreshes. The graphics engine provides real-world representation for rigid components, supports and hangers, displacements, rotations, forces and moments on the piping model. • Seismic and support settlement analysis Robust load case definitions/manipulation • Robust load case definitions • User-definable reports • International piping code support • Multiple code editions support • ASME B31J SIFs and Flexibilities • Spring Can with Friction builder • Extensive material databases • Steel databases and modeling • Expansion joint databases • Hanger design and databases • Integration with Intergraph Smart® 3D and CADWorx design solutions • Results export to Microsoft® Excel®, Word and MDB files Your customized load case definitions can be imported or exported through an easy-to-use template. Select to bypass or exclude certain cases from your analysis to speed up analysis time and focus on the conditions of interest. Use the Group Edit view to make quick changes to multiple load cases at once. Use the List view for creating new load cases, filtering and sorting on columns. Automatic renumbering of load cases upon deletion of cases, with easy review of the impacts on combination cases. Direct ASME B31J SIFs and Flexibilities The direct implementation of code B31J-2017 in CAESAR II does not require the use of third-party products for the calculations and application of B31J SIFs and Flexibilities. Only B31J SIFs can be applied without B31J Flexibilities (i.e., setting k=1), by using the global switch provided in the configuration settings. The new complete B31J implementation provides a significant improvement in workflow. ASME B31J is applied when required by the piping code edition and is available to optionally apply to any metallic code. Using B31J provides opportunities to reduce design time, construction costs, ana

Advanced analysis and reporting In addition to the evaluation of a piping system’s response to thermal, deadweight and pressure loads, CAESAR II analyzes the effects of wind, support settlement, seismic and wave loads. Nonlinear effects such as support liftoff, gap closure and friction are included. Select the proper springs for supporting systems with large vertical deflections. Select Spring Can with Friction builder for automatic modeling of spring can with friction. Multiple reports modified to account for the B31J SIFs & Flexibilities. Accounts for seismic second-degree flexibility and bends...
